The named spots just below the Excalibur mid-station are paid and reserved for regular Joe passholders. Was around $500-600 a year last I was aware but there's an epic wait list.

Was a super nice afternoon/evening on Cypress for sure... I was up there with our youngest daughter playin around in the smoosh.

thought I sorta recognized ya from your past photos, will say hi...

cool stuffs, thanks for the input reukk... That's just the sort of thing I was hoping to hear. :cool:

Heya,

Scored a sweet deal on a pair of last year's 165cm Icelantic Oracle for my wife a couple weeks ago, but starting to wonder if I'm asking for trouble with too big a ski.

She's 5'3, hasn't...

Rest in Peace Shane... Never really been one to follow individual athletes but something struck a chord with me on your attitude, humour, and raw talent.

Charge big lines in the blower known as...

ps, I could give a fuck about the arms, still exceptional.

I've watched this clip at least a dozen times over the past couple days and have to say it's the finest segment of ski oriented film I've ever seen.

Not sure if it's the soundtrack, the editing,...

nice one, I'm in :)

sure, why not?

:)

Add one more to the pile of unimpressed customers.

I picked up a pair of 07/08 190 Katanas at the start of the season. Second day clipped a fairly mellow rock which resulted in a big ass coreshot...

back on, git um!

I'd keep watching closely today as it looks like they have quite a few remaining in stock: http://gearattack.com/items/2456

got em but having second thoughts on sizing as the directions on SAC don't really make a ton of sense... No reference to what the measuring unit...



I'm usually an XL but bought the 11's.......

dunno yet as I just got them a couple weeks ago. I'm expecting for them to ski fairly similar to my Priors but with a bit more float in the deeper snow. I scored a sweet deal which is basically the...

Here's mine.. L-R

Esoteric question of the day for the Seattle Mags...

What's the best (i.e. typically faster) way to get back to Vancouver, BC if I'm leaving Seatac at around 6:30am on a weekday, I5 or 405?

There is no fix for this as far as I'm aware, Flash on Linux simply doesn't support Flash transparency.

Eds, thanks but I'm looking specifically for a slalom ski. Powstash hooked me up with a great set of Nordica K12 GS last year so I'm set in the GS department.

irip, PM sent.

Cheers!

thanks but think I'll pass on those. Sound like they're of the longer, straighter variety whereas I'm kinda lookin for something with the more "modern" shape.

Rest of the quiver has filled in quite nicely, but I'm kinda looking for something that can make the best of the hardpack. I dunno, something like the Elan Ripstix or a Fischer WC Slalom... The...

Get a Cypress NightTimer for $364. Not as flexible as the $270 full Seymour pass, but you'll get lots more skiing in with high speed lifts, and it's a quite a bit closer to Burrard Street Bridge.

Canada Post seems to only update tracking until it hits the border.

Did you try entering your Canada Post tracking number on the USPS site?

They do ship to Canada. They've even got a blended rate that includes taxes and duty. Takes a week or two to get here but usually works out to a really good deal.

Yep, and I'm super bummed.

I'd been watching SAC super closely for the past week as I had a feeling the XXL's would be up soon since they had a bunch (22 pair) at the outlet. Got the email and I...

Cypress for sure.

I usually get up there three or four mornings a week and really looking forward to this year. Not only for the new lift, but they're also upgrading the Sunrise Quad to...

Assuming you're looking at brand new, how bout 2007 Volvo XC70? They're comin out with a brand new 2008 body style in a few weeks so you can probably find some sweet deals on the 2007 models.

Yeah, thought about that but the $1K pricetag is a pretty big turnoff

Kinda lookin to round out the quiver this year and am looking for a few opinions...

Right now I've got 188 Prior Originals which I tend to use as my everyday ski, 184 Volkl 724 Pro for the...

On again right now, the MX that is.

Definitely a scam. I Googled part of his message and lo and behold......

I agree, great idea!!! Reminds me of the surf flick Single Fin Yellow which is about a surfboard that gets sent around to be ridden by surfers all over the World at their home breaks.

Wow, that's an awesome looking resource, thanks for the tip!

Took this photo over towards Flute yesterday ... Nicely sums up yer TR:cool: :cool: :biggrin:

200cm Rossignol 4S with Geze 962R bindings and yeah I still got em.

Ummm, bumping this once more I guess.

Haven't heard back from ya powstash... Are the K12's available? :confused:

PM sent... I'll take the K12's if ya still got em!:FIREdevil

Surprised you won't just take the 400 CAD considering the pain in the ass it's going to be to package and ship out and the fact that you'll likely accept PayPal from the NS buyer, resulting in around...

Yeah, the start of the video shows traffic southbound on Friday. We waited in it for about an hour and only made it to Brandywine, at which time decided to turn around and stay overnight. Was the...

Yep, totally skied the new boards... Got 4 days on 'em so far and they absolutely rock.. Thanks to you!! ;)
